I have a problem with magazines. I love them, and while I still have the attention span necessary for a novel, my brain is wired more for the quick hit of a magazine article. I used to think of magazines as additions to my library – it was just as difficult to throw out an issue of Macworld as a collection of John Cheever stories. But after many, many moves, you begin to understand that these babies are heavy. And how often am I going to refer to an Utne Reader from March 1999? It’s been a hard lesson for me to learn: pass them on or toss them. Let’s face it, people who save years of newspapers are considered crazy.
I read Adbusters, and I also read Revolution. Is that wrong?
